Happy Full 20!

Celebration of cards before we headed out on our date.
I love how our kids get so excited for our gifts and cards.

I am so glad I captured this look on this boy's face when
he is in a hearty laughter...I hope I see this same expression
when he is 20!
It is a lifetime of sorts...20 years!
Andrew is just a part of me.  I realize how grateful I
am...when a marriage is bad it can be utterly consuming.  When it
is good, it can sometimes go unnoticed for what it truly is.
Today was a celebration and that is good.   
I pray for the next 20 that I will be a wife who...
Listens more than she talks
Engages more than she does
Cooks more than she cleans (hard one)
Loves more than she withdraws
Prays more than she frets
Gulps pride more than holding onto being "right"
Whose...Contentment shatters all distractions
Laughter rings through the house
And who is ready at a moments notice to love-the
one who has been entrusted to me by the God who enables
me to love.
Just like our life with God, we never know what is in store...
I feel that with Andrew and that is exciting...
from night to night and year to year!
Andrew is truly my one and only.
I think we are beginning to love more and more for the other.
Life keeps giving us new opportunities to show love for the other.
It's getting better and better.  There are things we still weather, this
is what we do, it is what we want to do.  We have been so blessed!
I love you Andrew.
